We tried here due to the reviews, but I'm assuming restaurant, and takeaway experiences, are two very different things. The portions were small, and the 20 percent takeaway discount was definately claimed back in the reduced portion size, sparse and missing ingredients. The food was nice, but in all honesty not too dissimilar to what we have had before, from ordinary take aways, that weren't restaurants. The chips were very dry and my family struggled to eat those, including my children who usually love them from other places! The egg fried rice was fresh and amazing but lacked any peas as seen in the photos. The crispy beef was nice but basically batter with very little meat. The sweet and sour sauce was fantastic but the chicken was abit soggy and with little pineapple/veg. The vegetables in oyster sauce were amazing but abit sparse eg. there was one tiny slice of baby corn in the whole dish, barely any carrot, broccoli etc. In conclusion it certainly wasn't a terrible experience and really had potential with some really nice aspects,but overall...
Read moreWe have been looking for a good Chinese take away for as long as we can remember. The Mulan was recommended by our good friend Miles, so we ordered a take away last night (14/04/23). My wife and I both agreed that it was the best Chinese food we have ever tasted! The king prawn in ginger and onions was to die for, as was the chicken chow mien and sweet and sour chicken.

Big thank you to all at The Mulan - it was...
Read moreWe visited for the first time today (Sunday 17th Sept) whilst in the area on holiday. We've been coming to York for years and only just found this hidden gem.
The service was fabulous. Very attentive and on hand should you need anything.
The food was so fresh and delicious. I had the spring rolls, followed by prawn fried rice and some curry sauce. My dad had salt and pepper squid and that too was delicious followed by sweet and sour chicken and Rice mum had the different menu to us. Soup, and 3 varieties of starters followed by a chicken and mushroom dish with rice.
It was such big portions we had to take it home with us as we couldn't manage it all.
We will be back again next year when in the area. Thank you for a lovely experience, delicious food and...
